    Battery goes dead, no obvious reason.

    That is high. A good battery should lose only 3-5% per month. It's true about higher temperatures, the ideal is 50°F. Higher than that means more chemical activity

    Retro Stereos

    You can try inserting a usb flash drive with music on it into that jack and seeing if it will read it.

    Blue dot taillamps? 68 Charger?

    I've seen them most of my life, mostly on 30's hot rods.

    Retro Stereos

    If your paint is clean (so it will stick) you can put down adhesive Velcro strips. Just lay down a strip, place wires across it, and put the second piece on top to secure...

    Engine dies like key was turned off

    You might also check to see if the power wire to the coil is properly tightened, and not possibly grounding out anywhere to cut the ignition.

    no spark at plugs

    It's a spark PLUG. It's supposed to plug the spark. Can you imagine the hazards of an actual open spark in the vicinity of a gasoline/air mixture?

    Retro Stereos

    If your car is really loud so you want a powerful stereo to punch through all that, you'll end up with hearing loss.

    What wire is this?

    It's hard to tell, but maybe it's 20 gauge?

    Blue dot advance springs

    Since the A and B distributors rotate in different directions, I thought there would be other changes inside as well.

    Alternator weak?

    Output could vary with temperature as well. This is from the 1971 FSM:

    No power to the head light plugs

    Check this thread: 72 Charger hidden headlight problem

    Car dies when using indicators or when brake light turns on.

    I'd start by putting a voltmeter on the ignition wiring, both distributor and coil, and seeing if the readings fluctuate when turning on the signal lights.

    1963 Polara headlight upgrade suggestions?

    Pulsing lights could indicate that one of the diodes is shot in the alternator.

    1970 Plymouth dash dead/looking for modern replacement gauges

    The reason scrap metal prices stayed low is the same reason there was a metal shortage; mills were shut down. It wasn't a raw material problem.

    your opinion please - just received my restored headlight motor

    The very word 'restoration' means that it should be brought back to the original condition. Anything else would fall into a rebuild category, which is fine if that's what was offered in the first place.

    SPEAKERS?

    As per the specs, it likely has a lot less than 200 watts of real power in total. When they claim "Full Bandwidth Power (at less than 1%THD) 22W X 4" then it's probably even less than 20 watts per channel when checked at under 1/10% distortion like good home audio equipment. It's a budget...
